Stop Flying!! America is truly the land of the beautiful! Drive to your destination and support the American restaurants, shops, attractions, and more! The airlines have overstepped and deserve to go down.They have outrageous costs, violate your freedom (TSA) let us not forget that, and they are happy to implement the mark of the beast shit. I have seen America in its entirety and trust me you only know it by experiencing it. America is the land that inspires songs!

Thank You for sharing your inspirational story. I can't help but think about the financial aspects of it... your Dad quit his job, and then bought a camper to spend a few months with his family. My Dad was a machinist in the 70's thru 90's, and he always provided for us, but taking a few months off work would have been cost prohibitive. I believe the heyday of blue collar prosperity started going downhill after the 50's. The fact that the cost of living outpaced wages was something that Donald Trump brought back to the forefront.
I'm sure that my mom was terrified as she was the keeper of the household books , but my dad made the major decisions so she was going along for the ride whether she liked it or not. She lived to be 90 and she still spoke fondly about that trip.
Money was spent very carefully always. Cash only , even for cars. They had both worked to pay off their newly built house in 5 years then I was born. We had bargain store clothes and rarely ate any where but home. Not even take out. Rare trips to the drive in movies. We weren't "Poor" , but they both grew up with very little. They wanted more for us I guess. When dad felt secure he did things and did them big.
